Cold Creek Manor - sucky to the suckiest degree
Gigli - no…I have not tainted my soul by watching the whole thing. What portions I’ve seen will plague my lineage, should I ever procreate.
Because of Wynn-Dixie was wretched beyond belief.
Anchorman. Every second was like a white hot crowbar to the crotch.
Here’s an unwatchable two-fer:
The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou and I Heart Huckabees were painfully, painfully bad. Perfect examples of filmmakers who are “too cool for the room” and leave the audience behind in the dust.
We may have a new winner! I’m about 20 minutes into Constantine (there was nothing else new to rent) and it is laughably bad.
Aw, man. I really liked The Life Aquatic.
My submission is The Grudge. Ten minutes into that crapfrest and we turned it off and mailed it back to Netflix the same day we got it.
Blade: Trilogy. But we rented it from the library and didn’t expect it to be good.
I’m sorry, that’s Trinity, not Trilogy. Anyway, it stunk.
Me, too. One of my favorite movies from last year.
A person I know has stated many times that he would rather DIE than have to watch Fantastic 4 again.
I recently saw the ‘classic’ film Blow Up. I guess I should have been high to enjoy the film but I wasn’t.
I finally saw the original movie* Buffy the Vampire Slayer*, since I was recently introduced to the TV series and loved the first two seasons. But the movie was horrible. I’m trying to figure out if it would have seemed just as horrible at the time it came out, or if it was just completely eclipsed and rendered irrelevant by the later version, like Tim Burton’s first Batman movie compared to the far superior Batman Begins.
I loved The Life Aquatic, though, and thought Constantine was better than I expected.
i also hated I Heart Huckabees, walked out in fact.
i was stuck on a plane with the movie Be Cool recently and it was very very painful.
Funny. I loved Life Aquatic. I hated I Heart Huckabees, for similar reasons to yours.
I refuse to see I Heart Huckabees because it was co-written by this complete asshole I went to high school with.
Kicking and Screaming. Such a terrible, formulaic movie. I could literally see the jokes coming from a mile away. And in the beginning it was almost good-bad, you could sit there and make fun of it. But then it killed one too many brain cells…
How To Get Ahead in Advertising - i think the only movie I ever rented (granted, through netflix) and couldn’t stand to finish.
Stupid recommendations
Gotta second Anchorman. I thought I’d watch anything with Will Ferrell. Or Steve Carrell. I was tragically, tragically wrong.
The winner, hands down, is Manos: Hands of Fate. I Netflixed this after reading an Entertainment Weekly article declaring it the worst movie ever made. It was everything I dreamed it could be. The DVD is actually a MST3K episode, so even better…
Holy shit. This is the most boring horror movie I have ever seen. Even more boring than Ring 2. (Which says a lot, since that’s the second most boring horror movie I’ve ever seen.) Utter swill. Horse manure. Swamp scum. The bottom of the cinematic barrel.
I’ve seen quite a lot of crap lately thanks to an upgraded movie package through my cable provider and a school and work free month:
Van Helsing
King Arthur
Cold Creek Manor
Bio Dome
Gigli
Batman and Robin
Batman Forever
There is an avalanche of mediocre films that I could list as well, but I’d rather not be here all day.
I have seen more awful horror/suspense flicks in the past few years than I care to recollect, mainly because I seem to date girls who like to go to horror films.
The Darkness was dreadful.
Hide and Seek was not so good.
Aside from horror I absolutely hate HATE HATED Napoleon Dynamite. I couldn’t watch more than 20 minutes before I turned it off.
Don’t get me started about The Ring.
